💬 What Visitors Are Saying

Beautiful out and back course starting under a bridge with large murals.
Fantastic course flat and fast.
Amazing parkrun. It is all on concrete pathways and pretty flat.
Great scenic run, view of the ranges on the West side, out & back, flat, Gulf views & sometimes a Dolphin
Did this in summer, but as a freedom run, so was able to set off early before the day warmed up.
Usual super friendly volunteers we snagged their 5th birthday celebrations and scored free breakfast of home made yummies
The people running it are sensational. So welcoming to us coming from other places.
No sharp turns other than the 180 near the playground, so probably a good one to set a PB on.
Well organized & friendly
